My Favorite Song (of the year) :))
_Name: Afterlife
_Artist: Avenged Sevenfold (A7x)
_Link: <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amSlFIkxiJ4> (They cut a lot especially the violin parts:(( )
_Link to full song but without the clip: <http://mp3.zing.vn/mp3/nghe-bai-hat/Afterlife-Avenged-Sevenfold.IWZCFEAA.html>
_Why this is my favorite song: I like this song because it talks about people that don't want to leave this world; there's a guy who was trapped in an afterlife, he wants to get out of there because he thinks that he is too young to belong in this vile place.
_Why this song connects to my life: There was a lot of disaster moments like when I did something negatively, I wished that I'd never did those things and everything will come back to normal just like that guy wants to get out of his afterlife and enjoys the peace that he had before.

'Madam and the Rent Man' Questions
1. Read with a Purpose
- I think Madam and the rent man said 'So we agrees' on the last line because they both understand each other. When the rent man asked for money, Madam told him that her apartment was terribly a mess and when she told the rent man to fix it, he denied her offer. Madam said that she will not gonna pay for the apartment and the rent man agreed. Madam knew that the rent man is just an agent in this apartment so she agreed that the rent man agreed that she doesn't need to pay.
2. Infer
- I think that the message of 'Madam and the Rent Man' is that we should understand each other when we're having a problem. Like Madam, she's poor and lived in an old ugly apartment but have to pay big money for it. I think that the rent man is also not a rich man because he doesn't have enough requirements to fix the apartment. Madam and the rent man argued with each other but finally the man understood Madam and let her off.
3. Analyze
- I think that the author used good word choices because by just reading 'Madam and the Rent Man', I can imagine what kind of people they are and what kind of situations they're facing. The characters in the story used inappropriate grammars so they might be poor. The author also used words that is sound like rappers and different from the white people so I can tell that they're all black.

'Madam and the Rent Man' Images
Three images while reading "Madam and the Rent Man" by Langston Hughes:
_ A lonely big old woman.
_ An empty and wrecked apartment.
_ The Rent Man has a big mustache that covers his mouth.
